Weekend Additions
I acquired these four on the weekend from an antique fair.
A circa 1950s Wostenholm sleeveboard penknife with faux ivory. The good carbon steel sharpens very nicely. Will edc this one for awhile.
Next is a nice Taylors Eyewitness bone handled serpentine jack knfe.
This is 1941 GI British army knife. The recessed dimpled pattern on the scales is somewhat unusual for this type of knife. I was quited pleased to add this to my collection of military folders.
Finally, an aluminum-handled knife advertising Sissons Bros. The company made paints, varnishes etc. Fantastic condition for a 100+ year old knife.
